Last trip to the grocery store I couldn't find any non-US salad kits, and Silk NextMilk is made down there now, because I guess our plants were the listeria ones. Chip dip was surprisingly hard to find too, although I did it.

I'm very pleased with how many vegetables actually come from Mexico (definitely via the US though), and there's even a few things you can get from greenhouses, so that situation is less dire than I'd expected.

That's the next frontier for me. AliExpress looks very promising, and I'm going to bug other people I know about degoogling as well now. Streaming is a bigger question, because I'm not sure I can sell piracy, I never really watch TV alone, and while we do a lot of CBC we still need to supplement with Netflix, as of now.

I'm not sure if I should care about the ownership of brick and morter stores, except Walmart, because they're all personally (edit: majority) owned by the Walton family. Even if like Costco the profits go to the US, they have shareholders all over the world, and obviously the store itself is in Canada.
